Chapter 131: The God and the Wolf in the Scroll (1/3)

Ivan I, after looking at the Ecumenical Patriarch in front of him, took the ancient parchment scroll in the hands of the Ecumenical Patriarch.

Then, he turned and sat down in his seat.

The parchment scroll on both hands was extremely heavy.

It is surrounded by chains of pure gold, indicating that the original collector of the scroll was very cautious.

Ivan I slowly removed the chains from the scroll in the opposite circle.

Then he quietly looked at the scroll in front of him that was stained with the dust of time.

This may well have solved a long-standing question: Why did the Lord disappear for so long?

This question is important, very important, and it determines whether or not his battle with the Pope makes sense.

It also determines their perception and attitude toward the Lord.

In the midst of a solemn and solemn church.

"Whew!"

Ivan I gently blew the dust off the scroll, and the fine dust was raised and scattered to the ground.

He slowly opened the parchment scroll in his hand with a cautious look on his face.

If Pope Mario didn't lie to him, then there should be a record of that war here.

God's War?

What would that look like?

Pioneers like them, who guided hundreds of millions of believers, after receiving the gift of the Lord, did not wonder why the Lord had disappeared for so long.

For if the Lord is truly omniscient and omnipotent, then why did He disappear?

This is a very serious problem.

It is so serious that it even affects the foundations of the entire Holy See.

And in the years of exploration of Ivan I, he has long discovered that there is probably more than the only true god in the world.

But in that case, why is it not mentioned in the texts they are studying?

Ivan I has too many questions at the moment: about the Lord, about the other gods, about why they disappeared, why did they come back?

He gently opened the sheepskin scroll in his hand, and a faint aroma of ink came from the scroll.

He hoped that the scroll in front of him would solve his doubts.

Drunk with the opening of the scroll, lines of handwriting began to appear, which was not neat, but also showed that the writer was not in a calm mood at the time.

Only those who witness the madness of history will know how unimaginable real history is before it is written on paper.

Lines of Turkish are written on the yellow, ancient scrolls: a group of crazy people and gods, they want to establish an order that covers the world, they are a group of madmen, a group of wolves with the support of the gods, they have begun to conquer the world, just like Alexander the Great in the beginning, starting from a small territory, they tried to annex the world.

Ivan I felt as if the man who wrote the words was sitting across from him, and Ivan I could even imagine what he looked like.

Unkempt hair that hasn't been washed for a long time, messy dress.

His tone was frantic and descriptive of an era, as if he was not able to express his excitement.

Annex?

Mongolia?

Ivan I was not a man who did not know much about history, and the real modern papacy had an understanding of science and history that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

Not only his Orthodox, but also the Pope of the City of Prophets invests no less than 10 billion dollars a year in scientific research.

They attach great importance to science, and they believe that science is some kind of concrete manifestation under theology, so research is necessary.

In this case, the whole of the Holy See was mostly a man of great learning.

Not to mention those who reached the status of Ivan I.

Naturally, he also knew this history, when Europe was a little bit closer, and if it weren't for the internal strife in the Great Mongol Empire, the whole of Europe might have fallen.

But according to what is written on this parchment scroll, it does not seem to mean this.

If the Great Mongol Empire at that time was a wolf on this, then who were the gods on it?

Is it the Lord?

Ivan I took a deep breath and continued to look slowly.

And the language of the writers has become even more frenzied, and in some places the sentences have begun to make no sense, and Ivan I can only rely on his own understanding to connect them: they start a great war, even the gods are not spared, and a naked killing feast unfolds in the East, where slaughter and conquest are the only themes, and they become more and more irritable, countless fragile gods collapse, and weak gods are slaughtered and bloodied.

The more Ivan I looked at it, the more frightened and confused he became.

Aren't even the gods immune?

What kind of enemy is that?

Moreover, if the Holy See knew of the existence of so-called other gods, why did they not describe them in the texts?

Is it for missionary purposes?

And who are these gods behind the wolf?

How could they be so powerful?

Ivan I gradually pulled the scroll open with his big hand, and continued to read with his fingers along the lines.

"They are expanding like crazy, to the south, to the north, to the west, to the east.

More gods and regions began to be swept into this epic war.

They were routed one after another, and no one could stop them.

Soon Rome also became a battlefield, and the war between the Holy See and the Green Cult was forcibly halted by a more powerful invasion.

The struggle between the two divided Churches was also stopped.

Thinking that this was their time of freedom, the creatures of darkness began to go on a wild scale.

But the gods behind the wolves are not afraid to go to war with everyone, whether it is the Lord, the true god of the Green Cult, or other gods, or creatures hiding in the dark.

All men and gods were drawn into this war.

And the only one that has not been involved is the Delhi Sultanate, which is difficult to detour because of the residence of those gods......"

The more Ivan I looked, the more convinced he became that this was definitely the time when the Great Mongol Empire was conquering the east and west.

But the war of the gods, what is it all about?

There has never been such a record in history.

"The last war swept through all the kingdoms and included all the gods of the time.

In the midst of the frantic attack, they tried to persevere.

The angels of the various religions fell like rain every day, and the corpses of dark creatures such as werewolves piled up.

Under the constraints of many parties, the war began to reach a stalemate.

But the killing continued, and finally in the east, after the Great Song Empire killed the head wolf twice, the wolves began to split, and the gods behind them began to divide.

......”

Ivan I read slowly, and as he read, he tried to understand the depictions on the scrolls and compare them with history.

"Song" was a very oriental name, and Ivan vaguely remembered that in history it was the death of the leader of the Great Mongol Empire that caused its division.

But how exactly did he die?

Where did he die?

He really doesn't remember much.

But he suddenly understood Pope Mario's feelings, and the more he knew, the more awe-inspiring he became.
